From Child Sexual Abuse to Adult Sexual Risk examines the relation between child sexual abuse (CSA) and adult sexual health outcomes in men and women. An emerging body of literature suggests that children who experience sexual violence are more likely to engage in sexual risk behavior and, consequently, may be vulnerable to many negative reproductive and sexual health problems as adults. These problems include unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, HIV infection, and adult sexual violence.

This course is designed to help you:

  1. Identify cognitive, affective, social and behavioral consequences of child sexual abuse that increase the abuse survivor’s risk for revictimization and negative sexual health outcomes in adulthood;
  2. Discuss the methodological limitations of current sexual abuse assessment methods and research documenting the prevalence of child sexual abuse in general and specific populations;
  3. Critique studies linking child sexual abuse to adult outcomes with respect to methodological limitations;
  4. Identify effective interventions or intervention components to reduce risk for revictimization among abuse survivors; and
  5. Describe ways in which abuse focused therapy can help reduce sexual risk behaviors for adults being treated for abuse consequences in traditional psychotherapy.
